One of the awesome things about being in a new place is seeing new wildlife. Going from Michigan to Texas has been quite the adventure.
We see a huge variety of animals that we would never have seen in MI. Here is a collection of some of them. I will have a few post about all the things we have seen here.
Part of our schooling has been learning about all of them.
SKINKS
Skinks are very common here. We find them all the time. Some have bright blue tails, some are more red. They are pretty fast and are hiding unless it's a sunny day.
They are EVERYWHERE!! They are in the lizard family but are not a true chameleon. They change colors from green to very dark brown. They have a dewlap aka a red neck flap that puffs out. They are to fast for me, I have not been able to get a good picture of the dewlap yet.
Can you find me???
